We are focusing on Multimedia Computing and Artificial Intelligence, especially 3D Visual Intelligence, Multimodal Intelligence, and Applications.

(1) Intelligent 3D Visual Data Coding and Processing:

3D Visual Data Coding (3D Point Cloud Coding, 3D Gaussian Splatting Compression/Rendering, 2D/3D Image/Video Coding, Deep Learning-Based Coding, Human and Machine Perception-Driven Coding)

3D Visual Data Quality Assessment and Enhancement

AI-based Coding Standards and Transmission Systems

(2) Spatial Intelligence and Embodied Intelligence:

Generative AI/World Models for 3D Reconstruction/Generation

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) Models for 3D Perception/Understanding

3D Vision and Multimodal Learning for Spatial Intelligence and Embodied Intelligence

We aim to conduct in-depth research on the theories and methods of 3D visual intelligence and multimodal intelligence, and promote the application of related technologies in immersive interactive media communication (VR/AR/MR) and autonomous intelligent unmanned systems (autonomous driving/robotics).
